System Requirements

The tables below specify system specification for different platforms. The requirements may depend on the application so these should only be taken as guidelines and not as absolute numbers. A complex clipping solution might require much more power than a simple collection solution. The recommendations for servers are for one server. The number of servers used for a given application (the size of a cluster) is a completely different matter and should be estimated using methods described elsewhere.
